GIORGIO ARMANI MAESTRO FUSION MAKEUP SPF 15 FOUNDATION

MY NEW HOLY GRAIL FOUNDATION: GIORGIO ARMANI MAESTRO FUSION MAKEUP




Hi guys, 
i've been waiting for the launch of GIORGIO ARMANI MAESTRO FUSION MAKEUP SPF15 FOUNDATION,  what makes me interested was Maestro is a new step in foundation technology, an ultra fine oil pigment suspension that perfect the complexion, it is water and powder free base totally non comedogenic and contains five oils which evaporate gradually to moisture the skin. It is incredibly silky and super lightweight, doesn't feel wearing foundation it still my skin but BETTER.

“It’s not a foundation, it’s a complexion perfector. A whole new generation of make-up that feels incredible, looks invisible and makes skin appear luminous every time. Anyone can wear it!!!”
- Linda Cantello, International Make-up Artist for Giorgio Armani Cosmetics.


After reading a few blog, they show the comparison bioskin tradisional foundation and Maestro foundation result, I doubt the result i think maybe its only a marketing set up.




But it proven on my skin, my skin looks smooth, you can see below on my back hand before and after using Maestro.


Armani tested during one week by 60 women aged 20-50, with all skin types except extreme ones and the result is:
 Blends into skin on application: 100%*
Easy to wear, you forget that you are wearing make-up: 100%*
 Easy to apply, gives rapid and perfect make-up result every time: 98%*
 It’s a pleasure to use this make up product: 95%*
 Natural make-up result without make up feel: 95% *



Giorgio Armani Maestro Fusion Makeup comes in a matte glass bottle with a dropper which is very different from another foundation bottle. I only need a few drops to cover my entire face, I had doubt that it could cover redness and dark spot because Maestro very thin and runny, but i was wrong. This is the most amazing product i ever purchased after GIORGIO ARMANI LUMINOUS SILK FOUNDATION


My most favorite thing is i don't need tools to apply Maestro, with my fingertips it spread so easily and smoothly. I don't need face primer and powder too. This is a unique texture, i never found any other texture like this, when i spread on my face its feels like a mixture between oil and powder. maybe because of this, Maestro so easy to apply on my face and very weightless like using serum.

COVERAGE: Sheer to medium. Like a second skin but cover my redness and dark spot, i only need two tiny drops to cover half of my face.

FINISHING: For the first two minutes after applying it quite powdery and satin finish, but 30 minutes later it blend naturaly on my skin and looks glowy. When i apply Maestro, i was very impressed my skin changed smooth, moist and firm. Without face primer underneath, Maestro working very well in minimizing pores on my skin perfectly.


STAYING POWER:  Maestro good on oil control eventhough i have oily combi skin this foundation stay after 11 hours of application, a whole day i don't need to blot even when i"m sweating a lot. Without primer and powder my skin still looks perfect and more flawless, dewy but not greasy.

After using Maestro for 2 days, my skin looks better. For me it just not a foundation but it also a skincare to reduce dark spot and redness.

Pros:

- good coverage but feels like using serum

-smells like a baby powder

- good oil control

- no need tools for applying, no need a face primer, powder and blot paper

- not cakey, accentuate dry patches and melting.

Cons:

- with SPF 15, if you take a picture with flash it will result a whitecast.

With $62 for 30ml, i think its worth. I can save more because i don"t need to buy face primer and powder,
This is the first time i found a foundation that have a good result and could reduce my dark spot and redness, Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk was good, but Maestro are much better. 

Have you try Giorgio Armani Maestro Fusion Makeup SFP 15 Foundation?

Thank's you for reading
